[CWB] Unable to index a corpus

[VIVALDI PALATRESI, JORGE]

Andrew, Stefan,

As I have fully access to web data directories, I will try to manually
index my corpora and copy index file and registry entries to the right
places and adjust paths accordingly. According to this suggetion the
full procedure would be a follow:
- use CQPweb to register the corpus
- it will fail to index so I will do it manually and copy files in the
data directories
At this point, will CQPweb see the new indexed corpus?

Regarding the metadata, each corpus file must have it own metadata.
Therefore the corpus cqp file should have the following format:
  <text id="m00105" title="title of document m00105"
domain="medicine"> ... </text>
  <text id="d00016" title="title of document d00016" domain="law"> ... </text>
  ...
Assuming this is correct. May I perform the same queries to this
corpus that in any other corpus indexed with CQPweb regular procedure?

Thank you very much for your help

Best,
Jorge
